One of the best shows
in a long time. Have refreshing it was to be able to see and hear a truly great band!

Dispite the $12 cover this event drew quite a crowd. There was a line
of people a long side the building, down the drive way and down the sidewalk. It did not
sell out as expected, but Club Caprice was very close to capacity.

The night had some special guests as well. They included
Eddie Nichols and Mando of Royal Crown Revue, Artie Shaw and his
wife, and a group of old time dancers that Eddie Reed brought in.

Other highlights of the night are Eddie Nichols pulling a few
Big Band members together to play a few numbers, a few duets with Eddie Reed and Eddie
Nichols, and a little performance by the Rugcutters.
